Gorgeous signature of “John L. Sullivan” on the signature page of this answer to a lawsuit against former Heavyweight Champion of the World. From a Manhattan court it has a Mint signature in the darkest fountain pen ink of “John L. Sullivan:” and his attorney. This is his answer to the lawsuit and used breaking of child labor laws as the reason. Overall 13x8” and some professional repairs at the folds to not affect the Mint signature.
